Martin House provides family-led care for children and young people with life-limiting conditions. We support families from across West, North and East Yorkshire, both at our hospice and in the community to provide respite care, emergency symptom control, end-of-life care and bereavement support.

The recent pandemic has had a significant impact on the services we offer to families and our fundraising income, and we are facing a projected loss of £2.3 million this year.

By purchasing two balloons, you could cover the cost of a phone call to one of our specialist care team members for a parent who is concerned about their child this Christmas, reducing worry and fear at this difficult time, and potentially avoiding the need for hospital admission.

Our £300 target will ensure that three families can receive home visits from our Community Nurses over the Christmas period, to offer practical and emotional support at this time of increasing isolation and anxiety. This is a lifeline for many of our families and means that they can continue to receive vital support when they are unable to travel to the hospice.

Thank you for your support and good luck!
